I love the Los Muertos skulls board aswell, Im suprised there hasnt been more "graphics" on boards through out the years it made a massive difference to the skateboard Industry and made the boards all the more collectable as years went on
I think that was the underground 'black wet suit clear board' locals approach to surfing...a back lash to the excess of the 70's and the rainbow surfboards...... though think of all those lost graphics....

Very true, I forgot about the Zephyer boards aswell, Jeff Ho always had "graphics" on his boards, which has made them hugely collectible, there was a few in the 80's aswell as we can see here modled beautifully by the handsome bren.k

Real classical finish. Would love to try out one of his longboards.

Ya same here, was talking to an older guy in La Jolla shores with one (CC Slider) and it seemed to just glide forever. He said he had it 6 years and its the only board he rides

New bing model
The Bing resurrection shaped by Matt Calvani and designed by Ken Mockett / black resin tint rails to bottom w/ moon tail and cut off nose / sanded gloss finish / moon tail singlefin. Combining the traditional "pig" outline with a modern nose concave and half-moon scooped vee bottom tail, this board may look like a retro pig but surfs like a modern single-fin. With 50/50 eggy rails and considerable nose concave, this board is suited for noseriding in the pocket of the wave. The tail features increases pivot-turning smoothness and creates extra lift for increased tip-time

Your just getting fussy about square noses now!
TSU- 04-30-2008
In 4 sentences or less can somebody explain what cut-off noses are designed to achieve please? On the Riddler it looks like it's integral to how the board is meant to be surfed, but on that Bing it just looks like they've had an accident in the shaping bay.
